MI5 IN THE GREAT WAR
Book ID/图书代码: 12100014B75851
English Summary/英文概要: In 1921, MI5 commissioned a comprehensive, top-secret review of the organisation’s operations during the First World War. Never intended for circulation outside of the government, all seven volumes of this fascinating and unique document remained locked away in MI5’s registry ... until now. Recently declassified and published here for the first time, MI5 in the Great War is filled with detailed, and previously undisclosed, accounts centring on the Security Service’s activities during the conflict. The main narrative examines MI5’s various attempts to both manage and detect double agents; the detection and execution of enemy spies; its study of German pre-war espionage; and the Kaiser’s personal network of spies seeking to infiltrate British intelligence. Coinciding with the centenary of the start of the Great War, this historically significant document has been edited and brought up to date by bestselling writer and historian Nigel West, providing an extraordinary insight into the early years of MI5 and its first counterintelligence operations.

Once again our foremost chronicler of MI5, Nigel West, has pulled off another literary coup in a career full of them. Just in time for the centenary of the outbreak of the Great War, West proves beyond doubt both that German Intelligence mounted a massive intelligence operation in Britain, and that MI5 responded with impressive efficiency and on occasion ruthlessness … Fascinating and invaluable. --Andrew Roberts
About the Author/作者介绍: 奈杰尔•韦斯特是一名主要研究国家安全和情报的军事史学家。1989年11月,他曾在《观察家报》上被其他情报学作家选为“专家中的专家”,并且《星期日泰晤士报》曾这样评价他:他的信息如此精准,以至于许多人认为他是研究特务机关的非官方历史学家。毫无疑问,韦斯特的信息来源很丰富。他的作品涵盖了潜在重大新闻的线索。他在《国际情报杂志》、《反情报杂志》和《世界大战概况杂志》中担任编辑委员。在过去的三年中,他一直担任《圣尔敏情报书》年度奖项的主评委。他还是美国前情报官员协会颁发的文学成就奖的第一位终身成就奖获得者。NIGEL WEST is a military historian specialising in security and intelligence topics. He was voted the ’experts’ expert by a panel of other spy writers in The Observer in November 1989, and the Sunday Times has commented: His information is so precise that many people believe he is the unofficial historian of the secret services. West’s sources are undoubtedly excellent. His books are peppered with deliberate clues to potential front-page stories. He is on the editorial boards of the International Journal of Intelligence and Counter-Intelligence and Global War Studies and, for the past three years, he has chaired the panel of judges for the annual St Ermin’s Intelligence Book of the Year award. He is also the recipient of the US Association of Former Intelligence Officers first Lifetime Literature Achievement Award.
